An intense search for missing missionaries, executed bodies hauled from Haulover Inlet, fabled treasure, an ancient relic that carries a curse, and Russian spies.
Lee Clark is a coffeeholic and a dark chocoholic who resides in North Carolina with spouse, two mostly grown children who are in and out, and a diminishing petting zoo of geriatric dog and cats. A North Carolina native, Clark is originally from Raleigh, with family roots in Virginia. Clark attended Campbell University, obtained a degree in Journalism from East Carolina University, and then a Master's in Technical Communication from North Carolina State University. After working in the software technology industry for over 20 years, creating and building highly technical user information for software developers, Clark decided it was time to pursue a true passion: fictional writing. The Matthew Paine character is a fictional character, though inspired by two very important men in the author's life, brother Sean and son Will. Both will see characteristics of themselves in the character and identify with some of Matthew's struggles.
